Explanation:
Non-metal elements bond to each other covalently. Ca3N2​ is made up of a metal and a nonmetal (with a large difference in electronegativity) and has ionic bonding.

Explanation:​
In SO2​, the sulfur is bound to two oxygen atoms.
The central sulfur has one non-bonding pair of electrons giving it three electron domains in total.
CS2​, BeCl2​, and C2​H2​ have two electron domains on their central atoms and have linear shapes.

Explanation:​
Recall of description of metallic bonding as positive ions surrounded by delocalized electrons.

Explanation​:
Recall that hydrogen bonds are the strongest intermolecular forces, and London forces are the weakest.

Explanation​:
Neither material is electrically conductive. Diamond has no delocalized electrons, while the delocalized electrons in buckminsterfullerene are confined within the molecule. There is no extended lattice of bonds through which the electrons can move in response to an applied potential difference. Diamond is a hard material; a large force is required to break the strong covalent bonds between atoms.

Buckminsterfullerene, however, is soft, as only a small force is needed to overcome the weak intermolecular (London / dispersion) forces between molecules.

This question is moderately difficult, as the student must recall multiple features of the two carbon allotropes or deduce their physical properties from the diagrams given.

Explanation​:
Carboxylic acids have hydrogen bonding due to O−H bonds.

Explanation:
The higher the charge of the ions, the stronger the electrostatic forces of attraction and, therefore, the greater the lattice enthalpy.
The smaller the ion, the greater the charge density and the stronger the electrostatic attraction between oppositely charged ions.
Statement I is incorrect since the smaller the lattice enthalpy, the weaker the electrostatic attraction and the lower the melting point is.

Explanation:
Ionic bonds form between oppositely charged ions; NH4^+ and SO4^2− in ammonium sulfate and Na^+ and CO3^2− in sodium carbonate.

Due to a smaller difference in electronegativity and both being nonmetals, $\mathrm{l}$ bonds are polar covalent.

Explanation​:
There is no polyatomic ion with the formula of CO42−COX42−​. The correct formula for the carbonate ion is CO32−COX32−​. The formulas and charges of the other ions are correct.

Explanation​:
The other three in theory, can form hydrogen bonds due to O−H and F−H bonds present.

Explanation:​
The central atom is carbon with two C-H single bonds and one C=O bond. This gives 3 electron domains and 8 valence electrons.

Explanation:​
All three central atoms (N, C, and O) have four electron domains. An increasing number of lone pairs reduces the angle between the bonding pairs.
In CH4​ there are no lone pairs and it has a tetrahedral shape with bond angles of 109.5$°$.
In NH3​ there is one lone pair and it has a trigonal pyramidal shape with bond angles of 107°.
In H2​O, there are two lone pairs, and it has a bent shape with bond angles of 104.5$°$.

Explanation​:
Volatility refers to the ease at which a substance vaporizes. Ionic bonds are very strong and, therefore, a lot of energy is required to turn ionic compounds into gases.

Polar solvents are able to form electrostatic forces of attraction with ions.

Explanation​:
Strontium is in group 2 and so forms Sr2+ ions. The formula of the sulfide ion is S2− as sulfur is in group 16. For the positive and negative charges to cancel out, one of each ion is required.

Explanation:​
There are three bonding pairs and no lone pairs around the central B atom giving it a trigonal planar shape. As this is symmetrical, there is no net dipole even though the individual bonds are polar. There are only six electrons around the central B atom making it electron deficient (it has not achieved its octet).

Explanation​:
2-methylpentane is branched and therefore has a lower surface area. The lower the surface area, the weaker the London (dispersion) forces and the lower the boiling point.

Explanation:​

Lithium is in group 1 and so forms Li+ ions. The formula of the nitride ion is N3−as nitrogen is in group 15. For the positive and negative charges to cancel out, three Li+ ions are needed for each N3− ion.

Explanation:​
Electrostatic forces of attraction between the positive ions and delocalized electrons (metallic bonds) must be broken for metal to melt. The stronger the metallic bond, the higher the melting point.

Explanation:​
Across the same period, metals have lower ionization energies than non-metals due to lower nuclear charges with the same number of shells (shielding effect).

Explanation​:
NH3​ has all of the bonds/forces named above, but its high boiling point is due to the presence of hydrogen bonds which are the strongest intermolecular forces. Hydrogen bonding is possible due to the presence of N−H bonds.

Explanation:​
Graphite is made up of individual graphene layers. Both have carbon atoms with three electron domains and trigonal planar shapes. Each carbon atom in diamond has four electron domains resulting in tetrahedral arrangements.

Explanation​:
Metals and non-metals have the greatest differences in electronegativity and so ionic bonds are formed.

Explanation:​
Metals characteristically have high melting points due to strong metallic bonds.

Explanation:​
Atom 1 has four electron domains and so a tetrahedral shape (109.5$°$).
Atom 2 has three electron domains and so a trigonal planar shape (120$°$).
Atom 3 has four electron domains of which one is a lone pair giving it a trigonal pyramidal shape (107$°$).
